Potato Chip Cashew Cookies

By Jahel

Ingredients

• 3/4 c unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 sugar
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 t vanilla
• 1-1/2 c flour
• 1/4 t salt
• 3/4 c crushed potato chips
• 1/2 c chopped roasted salted cashews

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Beat butter and sugar on medium-high speed until lightened in color and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add egg yolk and vanilla and beat until just incorporated, 1-2 minutes. Add potato chips and cashews and stir gently until incorporated.
Shape dough into 1-1/2" balls and place them 3" apart on a lightly greased baking sheet. Flatten with fork.
Bake until edges turn golden and center is still slightly soft, 12-14 minutes. Remove cookies from baking sheet and place on wire rack. Cool 5-10 minutes before serving.
